Is there any wonder people buy foreign items.

Thieves need to take responsibility like common thieves do. The keep hanging up the phone, 1-800-Walmart.Shame on both of you-We work hard for our money and I feel I have been robbed. Walmart main office will not even talk to you about it. I am so very disappointed at Polaroid and Walmart. I had bought a set for my sister as well, and off course it did the same-she just got 4 more months out of hers. The tv was put in our bedroom and had less than 300 hours if that many. The owner said that the design was a terrible design for Polaroid and would cost us $680.00 to fix.-Hah! The problem was in the power supply which is connected to the circuit board.

I took the tv to a tv repair shop and to my disbelief, the floor was covered with polaroid tv's. Called Polaroid numerous times and said they could not help because I didn't buy the extended warranty or I could for $280.00 have a tech come out and replace the mother board. Then in April 2009, the picture would keep going off every 2 minutes. (Still in warranty) I was told to unplug the set and plug back to reboot the tv. In August 2008 the sound would stay on and the picture would go off. With all the other individuals who trust Polaroid and Walmart, I bought a 42 inch hd wide screen tv on November 23, 2007. You should have the tv within 3 weeks.yea right!!!! Never ever will I buy a Polaroid product again and will tell everyone I konw not to either!!
#Polaroid tv 15 inch cracked
I took 17 pictures and emailed them the next day to Kamisha Polaroid, who said that the internal screen was cracked - she said she would have UPS pick up the unit within 3 days, 10 days later I'm calling again and on hold for at least an hour each time I have to call - finally UPS picked up the tv on 7/10 - Kamisha told me that they would file a claim with UPS and have the tv replaced, she said that we should have the replacement tv within 3-6 weeks.as of 10/14 we still don't have the tv back.we call and email about once a week, never get any replies to email and only talk to someone if we stay on hold anywhere from 45min to over an hour, then were just told the same crap over and over agin. In May 09, finally got someone at Polaroid to do something - they sent us a box to return the TV to them for repair - two months later we got the tv back via UPS - the box was soaking wet and had several puntures in it that went through the styrofoam, of course the tv was messed up when we plugged it in. But if you want a dirt-cheap 4K TV, you could do a lot worse.Purchased the 42 in hd/lcd flat panel tv for my son for Christmas 08, by March 09 TV was making a popping noise and kept freezing up. The lower-cost panels are likely to show their flaws more clearly on larger screens too, where the processor needs to work a lot harder to get a consistent picture out of all those pixels. We recommend sticking with Polaroid sets in smaller sizes though, where they don't have as fierce competition from big-name rivals such as Philips or Samsung – and are still cost-effective.

There wasn't much optimization to be found in the set's picture settings, but there was also little need to fiddle.Īt this price, corners will inevitably be cut, though – we found the P55D600's dimming zones and backlighting features disappointing and inexact when trying to vary the brightness in low-light content.īut for these low prices you're likely to be getting a decent picture from a Polaroid TV, as long as you don't expect too much from it. When we reviewed the Polaroid P55D600, we praised the brand's first UHD television for its impressive picture quality right out of the box, both in native 4K and when upscaling HD/SDR content. The hardware design also tends to be straightforward, with light plastic casing and a stripped-back UI. If you're looking for a more compact television to squeeze into a bedroom, or that can be tidied away in a cupboard more easily, these may be worth a look. Polaroid also manufactures TVs in sizes some brands barely bother with anymore, like 24 and 32 inch.

Any handy USB port in the back should let you use an actual Chromecast or Amazon Fire TV stick though, which might be significantly more convenient. Some Polaroid sets aren't really fully-fledged smart TVs in their own right – watch out for this – but come with a basic Google OS, which relies on you casting content from a smartphone or tablet.
